The Use of Flight Simulators in Measuring and Improving Training Effectiveness.

Abstract

This paper studies the value of the aircraft simulators as measures of training readiness. Simulator evaluations are analyzed for reserves enlisted crewmen on Navy patrol aircraft. Part-time reservists are found to have very little skill loss over time and perform as well as their full-time counterparts. Experience in the simulator produces substantial increases in subsequent flights appear to be useful measures of readiness and valuable training experience.
